Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris, France, on July 10th at 9 AM ET is quickly approaching. The firm isn’t holding back when it comes to at least a few of the topics it discusses; the announcement video’s graphic makes no secret of foldables, and the caption of the film teases that “Galaxy AI is here.” Both the website and YouTube offer live streaming for you to watch.
Beyond folding phones and pre-announcement gadget reservation discounts, there will be more to the occasion. That’s taken care of because Samsung usually announces new Galaxy phones at its second Galaxy Unpacked event early in the year, but we may also learn about other things, including
Galaxy Ring
Samsung’s January Galaxy Ring announcement was essentially a tease, but during Mobile World Congress in February, the firm allowed reporters to get hands-on time with a prototype, revealing colors and ring sizes as well as some information on the type of data its sensors will collect.
As of right now, there are reports stating that it will cost approximately $300 or $350 and that Samsung might launch a health and fitness subscription in addition to it. Other than that and the battery capacities disclosed by FCC testing records, not much information about the Galaxy Ring has leaked out of Samsung’s offices.
Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 from Samsung
There have already been many leaks regarding the Galaxy Z foldables. Even though it still uses the same 4,400mAh battery as its predecessor, the Z Fold 6 appears to be getting a redesigned, more squared-off appearance, noticeably brighter panels, and a somewhat longer battery life.
Even though the clamshell of Flip 6 may not have changed much from the previous iteration, some significant changes are anticipated. In addition to having a brightness bump akin to that of the Fold 6, the phone is rumored to come with a significantly brighter screen, a vapor chamber cooling mechanism, and a 3,790mAh or 4,000mAh battery. Instead of an OLED panel, the secondary screen could use an IPS panel.
It is anticipated that both phones will include a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset and be slimmer and lighter.
Galaxy AI
Samsung was among the first to hop on the artificial intelligence bandwagon, and a number of its Galaxy AI capabilities are now or soon to be accessible for a wide range of Galaxy phones and devices, not just the newest and finest. As of right now, Galaxy AI is packed with standard artificial intelligence features, such as Google’s Circle to Search and on-device, in-call text and voice translations, photo and video editing, and so forth. This is the company’s opportunity to differentiate itself a little.
Samsung Galaxy Watch
It is likely that Samsung will discuss its upcoming lineup of Galaxy Watches. While Samsung has already shown the low-cost Galaxy Watch FE, rumors so far point to more of the same for the standard Watch 7. However, this might also mean the unveiling of a massive smartwatch known as the Galaxy Watch 7 “Ultra.”
With its squircle frame and circular watch face, the Watch 7 Ultra appears to be a bigger, badder watch. The company’s response to the Apple Watch Ultra appears to be the hefty watch depicted in leaked drawings. In fact, a third button that might serve the same purpose as Apple’s Action Button is visible. It could not be compatible with your previous Galaxy Watch bands since it even seems to have a Samsung version of Apple’s exclusive slide-in watchband connector.
Fresh Galaxy Earbuds
The Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra isn’t the only device that appears to be drawing inspiration from Apple’s designs. According to rumors, Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 clearly resemble Apple’s third-generation AirPods, but with angular stems rather than spherical ones and accents of blue and orange at the tips. “Pro” variants have a matte gray finish and a somewhat distinct appearance. It appears that those are currently in retail shop rooms because someone on Reddit claimed to have previously paid $250 for a pair of those at a Walmart in the US.
